Depends on your age, physical health, training.What can I expect from track practice?
That depends on a number of factors, including age, gender and what your purpose is for running. While it is nowhere near a worldclass time, it is respectable for many runners seeking to challenge themselves and enjoy the healthy benefits of running and compettion.that is relative... are you comparing yourself to olympic level athletes or the regular joe.. or the person who just had a heart attack for being obese... i would say 23 minutes at any age is healthy and fit; you are averaging under 8-minute miles so regardless of age, it is an 'intense' run and not a slow, light jog... shoot for sub-7 miles and under 21 minutes.
A friend of mine won for her age group in about 24 minutes. There were about 50 people in her age group, so not a lot of competition, but I thought it was pretty good. considering it took me 34 minutes. I can do it in about 30 minutes now and I'm happy with that cause I have improved. The fastest girl at this particular race did it in less than 20 minutes. Fastest guy was less than 17 minutes. I would say it's a great start!
